We have developed a technology that produces free, clean and constant energy.

This means never having to recharge your phone, never having to refuel your car. A world with an infinite supply of clean energy for all.

Our technology has been independently validated by engineers and scientists - always off the record, always proven to work.

Deluded.

I thought it might be in the forum already but I couldn't find it. I should have broadened my search.

Cheers.

With all this global warming people are talking about, I don't think we need to be pulling up heat energy out of nowhere. ;)

...Unless someone comes up with a perpetual heatsink.

We'll use the moon as a giant Peltier cooler.

I'm thinking that Toast, King of the Moon, may take offense.

But ... this is ... argh ...

The coefficient of performance measures the efficiency of a refrigerator. And it is usually more than 100%. That is normal. (Which is why c.o.p. is not usually given in percentage terms.)

Perhaps they mean "thermal efficiency".

But damn it, they know so little about the subject that they don't even know what lies to tell.

I hate lazy conmen.
